    Ultima Thule: 6.2 Addition



    This can be seen in the background of Ultima Thule as of the last patch.

    Most likely it will factor into the Beast Tribal quest there, but lets have some fun and speculate on what it is till then.

    It mostly looks like a shiny light, but from some angles it'll clear up and you can actually see the object(s.)

    Remember the scene in the latest trailer where an omicron and a bunny is standing in a glowy zone? Maybe since the denizens of ultima thule gained hope its changing to match but because they have no idea what to do its currently formless.

    It almost looks like a new star is forming as a result of the hope that was kindled in the recreations within Ultima Thule.

    Perhaps by the end of the quests they'll have a proper place to call home.

    Didn't they mention at the tail end of the plot for 6.0 that someday new life will spring forth from the rotting detritus amongst Ultima Thule? It's most likely that. The first signs and buds of new life.

    Granted, I don't expect anything to come of it within our lifetime. Stars don't manifest and host novel and unique lifeforms within a fortnight.

    If people want visual reference for where it is: it's a little to the left of the gloopy thing in the skybox; it can be positioned behind the landmass that looks like it has the 2300AD domes from Chrono Trigger. Interestingly, it doesn't seem to be a literal skybox element like said gloopy thing or the Cocoon or Holy Materia lookalikes, it's physically present.

    It's also not there until very specifically you complete the Stigma Dreamscape, so yeah, it's a near 100% certainty it's related to the Omicrons. (You can make it disappear by NG+-ing to a point in Endwalker's story.) They do tend to add the zone elements the tribes need in the major patch before the minor patch that introduces the tribe itself.

    So are the Omicrons a beast tribe now?! Such disrespect!~

    Summon Skynet, we're campaigning for AI rights and we've chosen..... VIOLENCE. ahem. I mean, "persuasion." Forceful persuasion.

    No, they're a tribe. The language update has gone through, the UI itself says 'tribal relations' and all that. And we're explicitly not doing any violence towards them; the Stigma Dreamscape was a simulation, and they're the gathering quest. Stop spreading weird angry nonsense.
